Chris Burch's Model Railways

Welcome to my imaginary world of model railways!

Photo of ChrisI started modelling in N Gauge in 1990 (having had Tri-ang OO Gauge trains in my childhood). I have been a member, as I've moved around, of the Model Railway Societies in Leeds, then Coventry, and now Syston near Leicester. I run a Model Railway Exhibition at my parish church, St Peter's Braunstone Park, Leicester, on the 1st Saturday of each November. I have a main line layout at home, with enough sidings for 8 trains. In due course it will be replaced by a double module in our modular layout - but that's a long way down the line! Meanwhile, I have just sold two exhibition layouts, both part of the (imaginary) Nivverwas Valley Tramway, and I am working on the first module of the modular layout, "Castle Brewery". In addition, I have begun work on Herrenscar Harbour, a small shunting layout that will become the next station on the Nivverwas Valley Tramway.
